Ep260 - Choosing a Guiding Word

Doing What Matters

In this episode of the Doing What Matters podcast, I share my insights on the powerful practice of choosing a guiding word or phrase to set the tone for the year ahead.

As a business owner and someone passionate about living a purpose-driven life, I give you a step-by-step process for selecting a word that resonates deeply and helps to guide your personal and professional journey.

I've been doing this in my life and business since 2015 or 2016. And, there is a difference between setting a guiding word/phrase and making traditional New Year's resolutions. There is a deep internal discernment involved in the process.

We discuss the importance of listening, discerning, and anchoring yourself to your chosen word. Come join me in this intentional practice for the upcoming year.

Then, tune in to this episode to discover how you can use a guiding word or phrase to shape your 2024.
